A warm, dreamlike scene unfolds across the canvas ā a landscape awash in glowing tones of rose, amber, and soft coral. Against this tender pink background, a merry-go-round slowly sinks, its figures half-immersed, half-suspended in stillness. The air vibrates with warmth; reflections ripple gently, as if time itself were dissolving into color.
Despite the imageās quiet melancholy, the palette radiates a sense of peace. The warmth of the hues turns loss into acceptance, movement into surrender. It feels neither tragic nor nostalgic ā simply inevitable, and strangely beautiful.
āThe work is about presence,ā explains Dominic Virtosu. āAbout how everything ā joy, decay, memory ā exists in the same moment. The merry-go-round is just a witness to that stillness. Itās not ending, itās just this.ā
āItās just Thisā captures a delicate balance between playfulness and resignation, offering a vision that soothes as it unsettles ā a poetic meditation on what remains when everything else drifts away.
